Why not give his saving grace to everyone? If he desires the salvation of all as scripture says, why is only a minority of humanity moved to faith by his grace? This has never made sense to me and it actually led me to belief in limited atonement at one point, which ruined my perception of God for a bit. Explaining how this all works could make for a good video.

The teachings of Christ aren’t for quitters. He didn’t give abstract ponderings. He gave hard specifics.
Christ didn’t say, “Love humanity.” He said, “Love your enemies and do good to those who hate you.”
He didn’t say, “Do what makes you happy.”
He said, “It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell.”
He didn’t say, “Try to be a nice person.” He said, “If anyone would come after me, let him *deny himself* and take up his cross and follow me.”
We need the grace of God to follow God.
